Thanks mate, I think both Mr Merit and Mr Skill have a point to prove like you have explained.

But the balance between the two would be healthy for our community.

Quality is a relative word, what seems to be quality to you might be ordinary to me, so why now basing the judgement on what appeal to you and not to me?

Before I joined steemit, I only write quotes, I flow best with that. In fact my first username was fashioned after quotes. (@emmakwisequote), I lost that account in February though, but I have been forced to blend to what is operating on steemit by writing long posts.

I take it as a challenge to improve myself, and I have indeed improved, but not all can do that.

If the message can be passed with a statement, why going for ten?

We need to welcome an healthy community, not all can make it long.... Hahaahab

Thanks so much for this post again, you are indeed a problem solver... Smile
